Hey guys it's Elder Robertson here...not an actual scam but also don't click the links, i just typed random addresses.

This week was so sick! There was so many people that accepted to be baptized and it's so narly to see people accept the gospel of Jesus Christ. 

I've been chilling today and we cleaned the apartment. The other American Elder here is leaving today which is sad and a Canadian Elder is replacing him. His name is Elder Dick. 

I found these sick shoes that I might buy, probably not tho, who knows. 

We had this drunk dude come up to us and tell us about a lot of stuff and how he really wants to get taught and trusted us enough in his drunkenness to tell us some personal info and gave us his account to messenger, like, my guy. But at least he wants to hear the gospel...maybe? But ya he definitely never messaged back or anything. We also taught these teens a lesson but they just got off of drinking and smoking so don't really think they were very receptive to the spirit that time. But maybe we'll go back and see how much they remember. 

I pulled out Christmas tie today from Tonga which is pretty cool. Transfers were today too so I got to see a bunch of other missionaries. I'm going to an FHE tonight which should be fun. I also loaded up on food this wee. I got a big banana flavored bag of instant oatmeal, Special K, fake milk, orange juice, bread, eggs, pancit kanton or ramen, a bunch of super artificial cheese filled hotdogs, and a spinners ice cream earlier. 

My companion would like to tell y'all something: "Stay H.O.T" 

Stay Humble
Stay Obedient
Stay Teachable

So yeah, stay hot. Some wise words from my comp. Also Think Celestial. I think we've said that phrase like over 300 times by now for sure. So ya, if you ever think of anything that's not gospel related, say out loud to yourself, "Think Celestial". 

I also learned that you shouldn't gamble apparently, when I went to buy some lottery tickets my roommates said that it's not allowed for some reason. Respond if you read this email. Or not. You know what they say, "be there or be square". Hope you guys did something fun or spiritual or both this week!

Ayos lang ko, caso lang, medyo masakit ang katawhan ko.  Kay nabaskit mi sa umaga   Hi there! It's me Elder Robertson here again. We played a lot of basketball earlier with some of our friends for about 2 hours! I wish I listened to my track Coach Mathias about stretching. I can definitely count on one hand how many times I've stretched these past 2 years, and now I'm sore everywhere haha! I have a goal now to stretch once a week. If I can remember and if that even makes a difference.  We ate with the other Elders, we all bought sisig, (the pig face that you chop up and sizzle in a pan). I will cook this when I get home for anyone that wants!  We did so much this week that I can barely remember it all. But it was awesome. We achieved our goals. Which saying that outloud makes this missionary work sound like some business. Well it's the business of God. He is working time and I am so glad that I can be here working along side the Lord in this full time service.  ...

Ang huling email ko, tapos na ang misyon ko duon sa filipinas, pero hindi pa sa aking buhay. Hello everyone! This one is a little late because I didn't have a phone Monday. This one will be my last week writing or second to last. I am Home! Already released as a full time missionary for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. On Sunday President and Sister Martinez came to our branch and I gave a last talk. They took us to Tacloban afterwards. Then I worked in Tacloban the rest of the day.  We did departing activities Monday then Tuesday we left to Manila. We were able to meet up with a past companion in Manila, Elder Valencia, or brother, and eat out with him in the Mall of Asia. Then Wednesday morning we woke up at 3:30 am and left to the airport and flew out to San Francisco, 13 hours, then after arriving in the US we had a 4 hour layover and said goodbye to all my batchmates, then another 5 ½ hours to Dulles Washington DC, then I saw my family!  I felt so sick and...

Election day para sa mga candidato! Kinsa modaog? Ambot.   Hi family! And friends! I am stuck in the house right now. It's election day and to be safe we aren't allowed to leave the apartment. I've scrubbed my clothes and they are soaking now, I'll hang them to dry soon. I took a refreshing bucket shower this morning and then we ate some pancakes which I made. We had a meeting earlier about helping members and being diligent! I got a little video clip that hopefully you can watch about Joseph smith, "this should be our finest work.. nothing but the best for the Lord". I often wonder what I can do more or how I can increase my capacity to help others. One way I found is in Mosiah 2-4...all of his sermon is to teach people to do one thing.. "..that is, for the sake of retaining a remission of your sins from day to day, that ye may walk guiltless before God.." [Mosiah 4:26]. Achieving this is not a singular decision but rather a decision we have to make...
